Sihwa had some insomnia last night, or rather, she hadn't slept well for a few nights. First, she was troubled by Fina's cruel and tempting proposal. Then, she heard Zhang Zian talk about the whales being killed, and she saw the blood-stained harpoon. She was worried about the fate of the whales.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up in the bathtub. Water flowed down her delicate skin. Other than her long, dark green hair, there was almost no water left.
Huff!
She let out a long sigh. She really missed the time when she was just born in this world. At that time, she was so carefree. Relying on the fact that ordinary people couldn't see her, she played freely and happily by the sea. She even took the risk of sneaking into the swimming pool of a seaside villa when the tide was high. She lay by the pool and watched Korean dramas with the owner of the house in the living room.
The villa was very stylish, and the design was very clever. The sea and the swimming pool were only separated by a courtyard wall, and the courtyard door was often not closed. Perhaps the owner thought that no one would come in from the sea.
To be able to have a seaside villa in a location with excellent scenery, the owner of the villa must have been a local tycoon. He was a local tycoon that Zhang Zian would never be able to catch up to even if he worked for a lifetime. He was the kind of person who would never worry about money. Even the bathroom in his house was decorated magnificently.
Sihwa … No, she hadn't given herself a name at that time. She played by the sea for a long time. Although the white whale was very understanding, after a long time, she still felt a little lonely.
One night, when she was swimming by the reef outside the villa, she suddenly heard laughter coming from the villa. There was also the sound of people drinking. It sounded very lively and attractive.
What were the people inside doing? It seemed very interesting.
She took advantage of the high tide and jumped out of the water. She jumped back and forth between the reefs, trying to get close to the villa.
The cold and hard reefs hurt her and even cut the scales on her fishtail. Even so, it couldn't extinguish her enthusiasm to find out what was going on. Maybe she really was too free.
She finally came to the door of the courtyard. The door was not closed, and it was not locked. She gently pushed the door open and looked inside.
In order to effectively use natural light, the side of the villa facing the sea used a lot of transparent tempered glass. Whether it was the designer or the owner of the villa, they probably didn't expect anyone to peep in from this direction.
The spacious living room on the first floor was brightly lit. There were many people gathered there as if they were having a party. People in evening gowns gracefully raised their glasses of champagne to greet and salute each other. The ladies were all dazzling.
What was particularly eye-catching was that most of the people present were yellow-skinned and dark-eyed, completely different from the Caucasians who occupied an absolute advantage nearby. It seemed to be some sort of homecoming event.
Sihwa did not care about their skin color. No matter what, it had nothing to do with her. After satisfying her curiosity, she planned to leave. She did not understand why those people all had fake smiles on their faces, and their mouths were full of things like business and investment that she did not understand at all.
At that moment, she suddenly noticed that the living room on the first floor was dark, but there was a television on. The fluorescent light of the television reflected a girl's face.
The girl was about the same age as her, judging by her appearance. She looked depressed, curled up in the corner of the sofa, hugging her legs and staring at the TV screen.
Shihua felt very strange. Why didn't this girl go and have a party with other people? Why hide alone in a dark room?
Could it be … that the content on TV was very interesting?
But it was too far away to see clearly.
Sihwa, who was deeply troubled by boredom, did not hesitate for too long. In fact, she did not even hesitate for a second. She pushed open the courtyard door and rolled into the open-air swimming pool. She was a person of action, and people of action always acted before thinking, or only acted without thinking. She did not think about what to do if she could not return.
The sound of falling into the water attracted the attention of a waiter who was passing by with a plate. But the sky was dark, and the courtyard was very dim. He simply glanced at the swimming pool and did not find anything strange. He shook his head and carried the plate into the house. He forgot about this matter and just wanted to finish his job. Anyway, he was a waiter, and he did not receive a salary as a security guard.
Sihwa was quite proud in her heart, laughing at these people for being blind.
The open-air swimming pool was very close to the villa itself, separated only by a narrow corridor.
She was a little puzzled at the time. There was obviously an infinite sea outside, so why did they have to go through so much trouble to build a swimming pool here?
However, after jumping into the swimming pool, she understood. Because the swimming pool was fresh water, it was not as salty as the sea, and after drying, there would not be any salt left on her skin or hair. Swimming in the sea had its own fun in the sea, and swimming in the swimming pool also had its own fun in the swimming pool. This was a very novel experience for her.
She first swam two laps in the swimming pool, washed the remaining seawater off her body, and then lay on the edge of the pool to look into the living room.
The girl inside was very focused on the TV, as if immersed in the plot and unable to extricate herself.
At that time, Sihwa could not see it, but if it was the current her, she would definitely be able to see that the girl did not look happy. Her eyes were very empty, and although she was staring at the TV, she was actually distracted.
Looking at her like that, Sihwa really thought that the TV was very interesting. The little people on the TV were vivid, and they could even talk, showing all kinds of life that Sihwa had never imagined.
Of course, rich people could afford a big TV. The TV in the living room was very big. Although Sihwa was looking at it at a 45-degree angle, she could still see it very clearly. The colors were also very realistic, making people feel like they were there.
Thus, she was immediately immersed in it.
From then on, she did not leave the swimming pool because she had not finished watching the TV. Even if she finished watching it, there would be another one.
Perhaps it was because it was winter, but no one else entered the swimming pool, and very few people even passed by the pool.
The young girl in the house seemed to have a very bad relationship with her family. Her face was sullen all day, and she did not communicate with outsiders. Every time she talked to her family, she would shout hysterically. She would only calm down when she was watching TV alone.
The owner of the villa also seemed to have a headache with this young girl. He felt that it was very shameful to have such a child in the house, and he did not let her meet outsiders. Over time, she became more and more lonely.
At that time, Sihwa did not care about these things. She only wanted to watch TV.
She watched one after another, and whatever the girl put on, she would watch. Every day, she was so happy that she forgot about the white whale.
One day, she woke up in the swimming pool and found that the inside and outside of the villa was very quiet. She could not hear any noise or shouting, nor could she hear the sound of the TV.
The villa was empty.
